The numbers of Maiko's continue to decline each year, making this experience even more precious. Don’t miss your chance to witness this timeless tradition—book now for a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Kyoto is the only place where you can experience the authentic world of Geisha.
In this tour, we will meet up at KOHYO Kamishichikenten and walk for about 5 minutes to the Geisha house. After watching the show with the Maiko or the apprentice Geisha, you are able to ask questions and also take pictures together.
After the show, we will have an optional session of going to the next door Kitano Tenmangu Shrine with the Maiko, where you will have time to take pictures at a shrine with a Maiko, something that is very rare. Do not miss out on this one in a lifetime experience!
